Progress at Country Level
National Coordinating committees: 10/11 countries
Planning and Implementation:
Full package of TB/HIV interventions (barring IPT) now available to over a third of the population in the SEA Region
– Integrated nation-wide implementation: Thailand, India
• ―Intensified‖ package of interventions available to 400 million population in 11 states of India
– Scaling up in 3 countries: Indonesia, Myanmar and Nepal
– Case by case management: Maldives
– Preparations for collaborative interventions in 5 countries--
Bangladesh, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and Timor Leste

Surveillance, Monitoring and Evaluation
• HIV in TB patients
– TB R and R formats include data on HIV among TB
patients in 8 countries;
– routine reporting in India, Myanmar, Thailand; others to
follow
• TB in PLHIV
– Much less reported data: better surveillance required in
most settings
• Joint Monitoring and Evaluation
– Needs to be systematically done in most settings

―Among HIV-infected TB patients in India death was common despite the
availability of free co-trimoxazole locally and ART from referral centres.
Death was strongly associated with the absence of ART during TB
treatment. To minimize death, programmes should promote high levels of
ART uptake and closely monitor progress in implementation.‖

Summarizing
Most HIV-TB patients are young, males, and
do not know their HIV status when diagnosed
for TB. 80% of those tested have CD4 counts
below 250/cm—less than a fifth receive ART
(reported) and nearly a quarter die….

Infection control measures included in national plans: Bhutan India,
Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal and Thailand Introduction of appropriate measures a slow process
Focus on building capacity--
Bi-regional workshop on air-borne infection with CDC, MOH
Thailand and CSR units of SEARO and WPRO held in August 2008
Training materials on Airborne infection control developed
In-country technical assistance, national workshops

IPT
Not policy in any country
Being piloted in Myanmar and Thailand
Commonly heard concerns:
It is difficult to rule out active TB; so we may end
up giving monotherapy
INH resistance is high; IPT could further magnify
INH resistance.
Managing adherence to IPT is too complicated and
would be costly
Not so effective—and IPT efficacy wanes with time

The 4th “I”: Integrated Case Management
Principles: – TB and HIV programmes benefit from close
coordination and integration at service delivery level
– Patients benefit from a single source care for OI management, DOTS, CPT, and ART
– Programme efficiencies: Training, monitoring and evaluation
• The – ―Integrated Management of Adult Illness‖ (IMAI) training package for health staff is an option to move towards this goal
Caveat: • Decentralized HIV services are critical to achieving
integration

“D” Strengthening systems…jointly
• Establishing regular interaction
• Resource mobilization
• Capacity building
• Involving communities and NGOs

Addressing TB/HIV: Programmatic issues
– Systems for cross-referral, linkages between services:
– Approaches adopted to provide services, level of health facilities, involvement of other providers and communities (much to learn from each other)
– Health systems constraints
• Diagnostics and drugs: availability HIV test kits, TB cultures, X-rays; difficult in practice to apply recommended algorithms
• Personnel: Not enough trained, skilled and motivated personnel for counseling– fear among Health Workers, stigmatization of patients
– Infection control measures only now becoming a focus

Addressing TB/HIV: Other challenges
• Confidentiality??
• Contact tracing in the face of strong social stigma?
• Capacity to look for MDR??
• Continuum of care – regular repeat screening
for TB?

TB/HIV : Summary
• Wide variations in HIV prevalence, dynamic patterns across the Region, and within individual countries
• Substantial progress towards integration of TB/HIV activities into both programmes
• Less than 1/5th of PLHIV with active TB were reported in 2008 to have received ART
• Further decentralization of HIV counseling, care and treatment centres will help accelerate integration of TB/HIV services (4 ―I’s‖ at every HIV service deliver point)

TB/HIV : The interim Goals in the SEA
Region
To achieve by 2015:
• Equitable access to the full package of
interventions for TB/HIV ―under one roof‖ to all
population groups in the Region, through
integration of service delivery by both programmes
and further decentralization
and as a result,
• Reduction in mortality rates among HIV-TB co-
affected individuals to under 5%
